You might get up votes if you accompanied a controversial opinion with a reasoned argument. However, making only broad, unsubstantiated statements is a waste of bandwidth and everyone's time.

You might get up votes if you accompanied a controversial opinion with a reasoned argument.

Ultimately I agree that they should include the argument, but adding a reasoned argument has very little affect on the use of the vote buttons as "agree/disagree."
